Small Business Innovative Research

Abstract

This program explores innovative concepts pursuant to Public Law 106-554 (Small Business Reauthorization Act of 2000) and Public Law 107-50 (Small Business Technology Transfer Program Reauthorization Act of 2001), which mandates a two-phase competition for small businesses with innovative technologies with a defense application as well as a commercial value. The SBIR and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs will develop new dual-use technologies for possible future DLA operational and sustainment requirements. Dual-use means the technologies will be judged on their potential for future private sector investment both as a vehicle for reducing development time and cost, unit costs of new DLA technologies, and as a route to national economic growth through new commercial products. DLA will conduct the competition as well as award and manage the contracts. The DLA's SBIR/STTR investments are divided into multiple Research Areas identified from within several DLA Elements: J6 R&D - Nuclear Enterprise Support Office (NESO) Alternative Sources of Supply - Additive Manufacturing Technologies, Process Controls, and Supply Chain - Seamless Self Sealing Fuel Bladders and Inflatables - Advanced Battery Manufacturing - Advanced Aircraft Braking Systems - Anti-Counterfeiting Technologies - Strategic Materials Rare Earth Element Source Development - Warehouse Modernization Technologies - Subsistence Supply Chain Solutions DMEA - Advanced microelectronics concepts, technologies, and applications
